What an amazing Christmas it was. We woke up on Christmas morning to see what Santa brought under the tree. Then we each opened our presents after checking to see if Santa and the reindeer ate their snacks. Prince Caspian was the only thing Tink asked for from Santa so we put that on to watch while Gidgi and I got dinner ready. Gidgi made us dressing, sweet potato casserole (the good kind with the nuts and brown sugar on top...my fav!), and a layered salad. I threw together a green bean casserole and added that to the ham that Jeremy's work provided us with. What a feast we had. Since our friends/neighbors were packing up we took a large portion of the feast to them to enjoy. Oh, it was so hard saying goodbye to them. We are going to miss them so much. But we know that God has plans for them and we're excited to see what those plans are.
Around 4 o'clock we packed, loaded, and headed to Montgomery. We ate in the car some food that I fixed because we knew nothing would be open. It was a nice, relaxing way to end the wonderful day. Friday the kids rode the mule (not a real one, it's kinda like a golf cart) all throughout Pawpaw's land. They even rode the back-hoe and tractor with Pawpaw. They love going to Nana and Pawpaw's because it's like going to Disney World...only cheaper. Nana and Pawpaw cater to their every whim as well...pretty sweet deal for them. Saturday Jeremy's brother and sister in law came down with my nephew, Luke. How much fun it was to have everyone all together.
Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year. We'll be eating lots of black-eyed peas and cabbage in this household!!!
